We made a mistake and accidentally got a room at Union Square Plaza hotel. It was a nightmare and we quickly changed to the Cartwright. So much better! It had A/C for one. It’s older but it’s kept up well. The rooms are smaller and somewhat in need of updating but compared to what we came from it was paradise! Got us in early and everything was fairly enjoyable. If you’re looking for a place to stay downtown that won’t cost $5k, you should consider it.

My room was the 303, perfect! It was in the back of the hotel. I couldn't hear any noise coming from the street or the traffic, I had amazing 5 nights of sleep. The room was super clean, comfortable, with a good space and the bed was something else! I really recommend this hotel if you wanna have a good time in San Francisco. It is close by everything, the cable car just cross right in the corner.

The room was spacious enough for the age of the building (keep this is mind, everything is smaller in old city buildings). Housekeeping came in every day and left the room looking great. The location is the best part; close to a BART station and with many bus lines nearby. There are many businesses within walking distance. Great common areas, but some of the rooms had mold that was visible on the walls of the room and the bathroom. This was an issue for me and after communicating with the staff, they moved me to a different room which was a much better option. The air conditioning unit in the first room also needed some cleaning as well as the windows. The staff is very friendly and always willing to help if you need something.

Friendly staff, not the cleanest bedding

Arrived at the hotel past midnight due to a late flight. The staff was so kind as to keep the door unlocked for my arrival. Got in the room and immediately fell asleep on the bed. Woke up the next morning and realized that my head had been on a blood stained pillow case the entire night. That’s kind of gross, to be quite honest.
